2 Bobcat tree fork



The Bobcat tree fork attachment is ideal for landscapers and nurseries that must frequently transport balled, potted and burlap-covered trees and decorative landscape rock, or any contractor who must move heavy odd-shaped objects. Operators can quickly attach the tree fork using the Bob-Tach mounting system. The attachment offers a stationary right arm that can be mounted in two positions for optimizing the size of objects the tree fork attachment transports. The left arm opens and closes via a hydraulic cylinder, enabling the attachment to carry objects between 7-in. and 36-in. wide.

3 Wright Stander RH



The new Stander RH, equipped with Wright's Rapid Height Adjustment, lets you quickly raise or lower the cutting height without getting off the mower. Moving a single lever changes the mower height from 1-in. to 5-in. Wright's Operator Balance Control increases the Stander RH's flexibility on slopes and uneven terrain. From a standing position, you can shift weight as slopes changes. For a quick exit or to remove debris, simply step off the mower. The Stander RH is available with cutting widths of 36, 48 and 52 in.
